We are the Crickmore family. We have been farming the land at Fen Farm for three generations and we believe we have rediscovered something that many have forgotten. That the very best food in the world is the simplest, straight from nature to your plate. Our herd of happy Montbeliarde and Friesian cows graze the beautiful marshlands of the Waveney River Valley in Suffolk and we are carefully makin

g their delicious raw milk into the finest cheese. We hope you love it as much as we do! We’d love to hear from you, or better still see you, so please pop in if you are passing by. Take time to stroll around Bungay in the stunning Waveney Valley and while you’re here, you can also try some of our delicious unpasteurised milk. We hope to see you soon!

🥛Not all milk is created equal🥛

When it comes to exceptional dairy, many people think of milk as the starting point.

But here at Fen Farm Dairy, we believe it starts long before that.

For us, delicious artisanal dairy comes from a combination of things that can’t be rushed or manufactured.

It starts in the pasture, in the soil, in the seasons, in the care we show our free-ranging Montbéliarde herd day in day out.

This World Milk Day, we’re celebrating not only the ingredient that sits at the heart of everything we make - but the land, animals, people and processes that work together to shape its character.

The quote that never gets old…

“It’s impossible to eat this butter without feeling that there is actually good in this world. It is edible gold... If you can’t see that, we have nothing more to say to each other.”
